Definitions
- the present invention relates to a vehicle regenerative speed control device that increases the rotational speed of a transmission input shaft to which an electric motor is connected by downshifting a continuously variable transmission when there is a request for an increase in the regeneration amount during deceleration.
- a hybrid vehicle control device which executes downshifting to increase the transmission ratio of the transmission when executing regenerative control in order to improve the regenerative efficiency (for example, refer to Patent Document 1—Japanese Laid Open Patent Application No. 2007-50866).
- the regenerative speed control is set to a feedback transmission control
- the follow-up response of the actual transmission input rotational speed with respect to the transmission input rotational speed command value is delayed. Consequently, the actual transmission input rotational speed is rapidly increased, then turned back and rapidly decreased, causing an overshoot in which the actual transmission input rotational speed exceeds the target rotational speed.
- inertia shock occurs in the vicinity of the turnaround of the rise/fall of the transmission input rotational speed, so that there is the problem that discomfort is imparted to a driver that is maintaining a constant brake operation after additional brake pedal depression.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle regenerative speed control device that prevents discomfort from being imparted to a driver who maintains a constant request operation after requesting an increase, when performing a regenerative speed control based on a request for an increase in the regeneration amount in a brake switching region due to a decrease in vehicle speed while decelerating.
- the present invention comprises a continuously variable transmission and an electric motor that is connected to an input shaft side of the continuously variable transmission and that regenerates energy during deceleration.
- This vehicle is provided with a controller which, when there is a request for an increase in the regeneration amount while decelerating, performs a regenerative speed control for downshifting the continuously variable transmission to the low gear ratio side, and increasing the rotational speed of a transmission input shaft to which the electric motor is connected.
- the controller imposes a limitation on a rotational speed change rate of the transmission input rotational speed when performing a regenerative speed control for increasing the transmission input rotational speed based on a request for an increase in the regeneration amount in a brake switching region, in which regenerative braking is switched to mechanical braking, due to a decrease in the vehicle speed.
- the controller imposes a limitation on a rotational speed change rate of the transmission input rotational speed when performing a regenerative speed control for increasing the transmission input rotational speed based on a request for an increase in the regeneration amount in a brake switching region, in which regenerative braking is switched to mechanical braking, due to a decrease in the vehicle speed. That is, in a regenerative speed control based on a request for an increase in the regeneration amount, downshifting is carried out, in which the transmission input rotational speed is increased toward the target rotational speed.
- the transmission input rotational speed reaches the target rotational speed of regenerative braking, which has a characteristic of decreasing with time in a brake switching region, it is necessary to lower the transmission input rotational speed after reaching the target rotational speed.
- the rotational speed change rate of the transmission input rotational speed changes gradually.
- FIG. 1 is an overall system view illustrating an FF hybrid vehicle to which is applied the regenerative speed control device of the first embodiment.
- FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating the steps of the regenerative speed control process that is executed in the hybrid control module of the first embodiment.
- FIG. 3 is a characteristic diagram illustrating the regenerative efficiency and optimal efficiency a line, which becomes the basis for determining the relationship between the rotational speed and the regenerative torque during regeneration, in the regenerative speed control process of the first embodiment.
- FIG. 4 is a relational characteristic diagram illustrating the relationship between the motor rotational speed and the regeneration amount by the optimal efficiency rotation that is used for calculating the target rotational speed in the regenerative speed control process of the first embodiment.
- FIG. 5 is a characteristic diagram illustrating the conceptual basis for calculating a Pri end command rotational speed change rate that falls within a shock-allowable change rate, in a brake switching region in the regenerative speed control process according to the first embodiment.

- FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating the steps of the regenerative speed control process that is executed in the hybrid control module 81 (controller) of the first embodiment.
- FIG. 2 shows the configuration of the regenerative speed control process, in which the process is started based on a cooperative regenerative control start request, and in which the process is ended when regenerative braking becomes zero due to brake switching, will be described below.
- Step S 1 following the start of the process based on a cooperative regenerative control start request, or, the determination in Step S 7 that regenerative braking >0, a target rotational speed according to optimal regenerative efficiency with respect to the regenerative torque is calculated, and the steps proceed to Step S 2 .
- the relationship between the regenerative torque and the rotational speed becomes the optimal regenerative efficiency when on the optimal efficiency a line, as illustrated in FIG. 3 .
- the “lower-limit rotational speed” shall be the rotational speed, which is determined as the pump rotational speed of the main oil pump 14 for obtaining an oil amount for producing the necessary hydraulic pressure to the belt-type continuously variable transmission 6 during deceleration.
- the “necessary hydraulic pressure” is the hydraulic pressure with which it is possible to shift during deceleration (low return shift) with a suitable CVT clamping force.
- Step S 2 following the calculation of the target rotational speed in Step S 1 , a Pri end command rotational speed change rate, which ensures the responsiveness to the target rotational speed, is calculated, and the steps proceed to Step S 3 .
- the Pri end rotational speed increase change rate is given as the increase change rate when the downshift speed of the belt-type continuously variable transmission 6 by the hydraulic pressure at that time is the maximum transmission speed.
- the Pri end command rotational speed decrease change rate is given as the Pri end command rotational speed change rate of the transmission speed that follows the target rotational speed by upshifting the belt-type continuously variable transmission 6 .
- Step S 3 following the calculation of the rotational speed change rate in Step S 2 , it is determined whether or not it is in a brake switching region, in which the braking force that achieves the requested braking force is switched from regenerative braking to hydraulic braking due to a decrease in vehicle speed. If YES (brake switching region), then the steps proceed to Step S 4 ; and if NO (regenerative braking region), then the steps proceed to Step S 5 .
- the brake switching region is determined when the vehicle speed becomes less than or equal to a brake switching start vehicle speed due to a low vehicle speed and a brake switching command is issued.
- the regenerative braking is gradually decreased from the brake switching start vehicle speed to a brake switching end vehicle speed, and a cooperative control is carried out, in which the decrease amount of the regenerative braking is compensated by the increase amount of the hydraulic braking.
- Step S 4 following the determination of a brake switching region in Step S 3 , a Pri end command rotational speed change rate that will be within an allowable G change is calculated, and the steps proceed to Step S 5 .
- a rotational speed change rate value that ensures responsiveness is calculated in the same manner as in Step S 2 , from when the brake switching region is started until an additional brake pedal depression operation is carried out.
- the rotational speed change rate value is calculated according to the idea that inertia shock can be suppressed if the rotational speed change rate, obtained by adding the Pri end command rotational speed change rate and the target rotational speed change rate, is less than or equal to the shock-allowable change rate, as illustrated in FIG. 5 .
- the Pri end command rotational speed change rate is set to be a calculated value that is less than or equal to the change rate obtained by subtracting the target rotational speed change rate with the target rotational speed characteristic based on the decrease of the regenerative torque from the shock-allowable change rate, as shown in the following formula (1). (Pri end command rotational speed change rate) ⁇ (Shock-allowable change rate) ⁇ (Target rotational speed change rate) (1)
- the “shock-allowable change rate” is given as a limit value whereby a vehicle deceleration G fluctuation accompanying a change in the rotational speed due to the rise and fall of the Pri end actual rotational speed will be within an allowable G fluctuation that does not impart discomfort to the driver.
- the “Pri end command rotational speed change rate” may also be determined with consideration to the response delay of the hydraulic pressure response and the mechanical response, or the like.
- Step S 5 following the determination of the regenerative braking region in Step S 4 , or, the calculation of the Pri end command rotational speed change rate in Step S 4 , the minimum value of the Pri end command rotational speed change rate calculated in Step S 2 and the Pri end command rotational speed change rate calculated in Step S 4 is selected, and the steps proceed to Step S 6 . That is, when the regenerative braking region is determined, since the Pri end command rotational speed change rate is not calculated in Step S 4 , the Pri end command rotational speed change rate calculated in Step S 2 is selected. On the other hand, if the Pri end command rotational speed change rate is calculated in Step S 4 based on the determination that it is in the brake switching region, then, of the two Pri end command rotational speed change rates, the one with the smaller calculated value will be selected.
- Step S 6 following the selection of the minimum value of the Pri end command rotational speed change rate in Step S 5 , the current Pri end command rotational speed is calculated from the previous Pri end command rotational speed and the Pri end command rotational speed change rate selected in Step S 5 . Then, the command shift value to obtain the current Pri end command rotational speed is output from the CVT control unit 84 , and the steps proceed to Step S 7 .
- Step S 1 the target rotational speed according to optimal efficiency with respect to the regenerative torque is calculated.
- Step S 2 a Pri end command rotational speed change rate that ensures the responsiveness to the target rotational speed is calculated.
- Step S 5 the Pri end command rotational speed change rate calculated in Step S 2 is selected.
- Step S 6 the current Pri end command rotational speed is calculated from the previous Pri end command rotational speed and the Pri end command rotational speed change rate selected in Step S 5 . Then, the command shift value to obtain the current Pri end command rotational speed is output from the CVT control unit 84 . Therefore, while the regenerative braking region is being maintained, if the target rotational speed is set to a rotational speed that slightly exceeds the lower-limit rotational speed, regenerative speed control is carried out such that the Pri end rotational speed of the belt-type continuously variable transmission 6 maintains the target rotational speed, regardless of a decrease in the vehicle speed.
- regenerative speed control by downshifting is carried out such that the target rotational speed is reached at a Pri end command rotational speed change rate that ensures responsiveness.
- Step S 4 when an additional brake pedal depression operation is carried out in the brake switching region, a Pri end command rotational speed change rate that will be within the allowable G change is calculated.
- Step S 5 the smaller of the Pri end command rotational speed change rate calculated in Step S 2 and the Pri end command rotational speed change rate calculated in Step S 4 is selected.
- Step S 6 the current Pri end command rotational speed is calculated from the previous Pri end command rotational speed and the Pri end command rotational speed change rate selected in Step S 5 . Then, the command shift value to obtain the current Pri end command rotational speed is output from the CVT control unit 84 . Therefore, in the brake switching region from regenerative braking to hydraulic braking, for example, if an additional brake pedal depression operation is carried out, then the Pri end command rotational speed change rate is limited to a value that is less than or equal to the change rate obtained by subtracting the target rotational speed change rate with the target rotational speed characteristic from the shock-allowable change rate. Regenerative speed control is thereby carried out with respect to a target rotational speed characteristic, which gradually decreases toward the lower-limit rotational speed after increasing from the lower-limit rotational speed, while maintaining the limited Pri end command rotational speed change rate.
- time t 1 is the brake switching start time.
- Time t 2 is the downshift start time by an additional brake pedal depression operation.
- Time t 3 is the brake switching end time.
- Time t 4 is the vehicle stop time.
- time t 1 is the brake switching start time.
- Time t 2 is the downshift start time of an additional brake pedal depression operation.
- Time t 3 is the brake switching end time.
- Time t 4 is the vehicle stop time.
- the first embodiment is configured to impose a limitation on the Pri end command rotational speed change rate for the Pri end command rotational speed when carrying out a regenerative speed control based on an additional brake pedal depression operation in a brake switching region for switching from regenerative braking to mechanical braking due to a decrease in vehicle speed. That is, in a regenerative speed control based on an additional brake pedal depression operation, downshifting is carried out, in which the Pri end command rotational speed is increased toward the target rotational speed. However, since the Pri end command rotational speed reaches the target rotational speed, which has a characteristic of decreasing with time in a brake switching region, it is necessary to lower the transmission input rotational speed after reaching the target rotational speed.
- the Pri end command rotational speed change rate of the Pri end command rotational speed changes gently by imposing a limit on the Pri end command rotational speed change rate of the Pri end command rotational speed.
- the first embodiment is configured to impose a limit on the Pri end command rotational speed change rate of the Pri end command rotational speed to be less than or equal to a shock-allowable change rate, which allows inertia shock due to vehicle deceleration G fluctuation accompanying a change in the rotational speed due to rise and fall. That is, if limited, the Pri end command rotational speed change rate becomes less than or equal to a shock-allowable change rate, which allows inertia shock due to vehicle deceleration G fluctuation. Therefore, it is possible to reliably prevent the imparting of discomfort to the driver, who is maintaining a constant brake operation after an additional brake pedal depression operation in the brake switching region.
- the first embodiment is configured to limit the Pri end command rotational speed change rate, when carrying out a regenerative speed control in the brake switching region, to a value that is less than or equal to the change rate obtained by subtracting the target rotational speed change rate with the target rotational speed characteristic, set based on the regenerative efficiency, from the shock-allowable change rate. That is, the Pri end command rotational speed change rate for when regenerative speed control is carried out in a brake switching region can be calculated using a target rotational speed characteristic that is set based on the regenerative efficiency in the brake switching region. Therefore, the process to limit the Pri end command rotational speed change rate is facilitated while achieving a limit to be less than or equal to a shock-allowable change rate that allows inertia shock due to vehicle deceleration G fluctuation.
